Okay all....

Here is the trivia question of the day. (Polly already knows, but the rest of the cousins have to guess !)

Polly and I were speaking about the ranch house not long ago. To me it seemed HUGE !! Polly and I wondered about the square footage of the main level. I took a guess and she took a guess.

We thought we would go to the source (C.A. Poindexter designed it) to ask him what the square footage was. I have the answer...go ahead and take a stab at it.

I would love to go visit that house again, but I am afraid it just wouldn't be the same. I know that I would go RIGHT to the refridgerator and get into the bottom drawer to look for carrots and bleu cheese dressing (I actually hated that crap)..or salami and Indian cheese !! Now that I loved.

Do you know that I could "sneak" black licorice from the cabinet under the china hutchy thing...and I stole a few cigarettes too. Grandma would keep her LONG L&M's down there. I went behind the barn one time and lit one up.....guess who smelled it? H.H.....oh shit, I thought I was dead !!

I stole a pack of cigarettes from Bruce Toole once. I took them from the BACK of the carton and when he got down to the end of the carton he looked at me real quizzical. Why didn't Polly and Kelly get that look? I still can't figure it out :)

And those minor misteps were just the beginning.....

Was the main floor about 1,800sf?
